I saw on instagram all of the followers that Kent Brewery had so we decided to try it. This place isn't near much and a windy road with lots of houses. The brewery was on a large piece of land behind some houses. It seemed very family friendly with lots of kids running around outside. The brewery is in one barn and then next door is the tasting room. The tasting room doesn't have heat, so it was cold there. We did a tasting so we got to try everything. The place doesn't serve food, so it's important to know that before you go. read more

Cute little brewery! My husband and I enjoyed their beer selection and that they had an outdoor spot for my daughter to play. Everyone who worked there was friendly and knowledgeable! read more

Living in Florida, the first time that I was introduced to Kent Falls beer was through another CT transplant who just so happened to share a bottle of their beer that he brought back with him. There hasn't been a single brew that I've had that hasn't been absolutely delicious or hasn't been given the utmost care from mash-in to bottle. From that day, it was my mission to make sure that I got up to Kent Falls on my next trip back home. They've been on my must-stop rounds when visiting ever since and with good reason. On one trip, my cousin and I took a little hike up the trail at the waterfall and had some lunch in Kent center before heading over to the brewery. On this day, it was rather overcast and off & on rainy day, but felt rather perfect outside. The hop yard was blooming in all its glory and you can feel that you're standing on historic land (because it has, in fact, been in continuous use for farming for 250+ years). All the buildings that house the brewery and taproom are barns and truly lend to the farmhouse atmosphere. You can buy plenty of package beer (both cans and bottles), as well as merch, on site. One thing that immediately drew me to Kent Falls are their sustainable and green strategies. The brewery uses a solar thermal array to supply pre-heated hot water to the brewery, solar panels to reduce/offset electrical usage throughout the year, a well for clean water, and (as seen in my pictures) the use of goats to help clear through brush. Kent Falls also composts all their spent grain, yeast, used hops, and spent fruit to make fertilizer which then is used to grow their own hops on site. Many breweries throughout the country could learn from their example. The only holdback, and this really is for folks who may try to access the brewery at the height of winter, would be getting there in the snow. You will need a 4x4 to get out there. I would safely assume that the brewery communicates when roads are passable or impassable. read more

What a hidden gem! We were told about this brewery by Mike at the Litchfield Distillery. Beautiful surroundings, interesting ambiance and an absolutely outstanding staff. They were friendly, informative and knowledgeable. Good beer selection, many of which I liked (im picky.) We'll go back tomorrow! read more

So if you live in the Hartford area and want some of the best craft beer in the State from Kent Falls Brewing, there's no reason why you have to drive to the brewery. You can buy cans at a number of different places in the Hartford area. But I drive there a couple of times a year anyway. It's a nice drive through scenic areas of the State. Lots of trees. Lots of hills. Lots of colors and water. You can stop at other great places (Arethusa ice cream and coffee in Bantam and Bantam Bread) along the way. You can check out the Falls while you're in the area (additional drive required). And if you drive there, check out the website before you go and you'll know exactly which craft beers you can get that day. My favorites include Shruggie and Line Aversion. You can also get a few groceries like local roasted coffee and farm fresh eggs. read more

Kent Falls Brewing - The lineup - Breweries Near Me - Kent, Connecticut

As I drove here, on back roads through wooded areas, I was convinced I was heading to some well-kept secret. That obviously wasn't so, given how far in I had to drive to get to an available parking spot. I enjoyed the ambiance of the place, and the layout. I also think I would have enjoyed a lot of the beers that they've served here in the past, based on what was posted. Unfortunately, there wasn't anything of particular interest to me today, but I'm certainly willing to stop by again the next time I'm in the area to see what they might be serving, if their complete list of beers on their website is any indication. This is the only brewery I've come across where their glasses have a fill line on the back. The bathrooms are not well marked. They're actually in the back of the brewery building. I never saw any signs anywhere, I just walked around until I found them, which was still enjoyable on a nice day such as today. But even without being super-excited about my visit here today, it's definitely a nice place to bring a group, and as I already indicated, I'd come back. read more

Unicorns, foxes, galaxies, hipster, beer fantasies. That's exactly what I could sum this place up with. Small tasting room at the Kent Falls Brewing in this cool, vibey, barn. All local beer. They sell even exclusives that aren't even bottled yet such as "Lillian", heirloom tomato sour! Also, my favorite has got to be the "Buddy Sprinkles" that you can get on tap and also take to go in their cool cans. I love the art and design on these guys! The first time I saw and heard of Kent Falls Brewing Co was at the Warehouse Wines & Liquors in Danbury. What got me was Unicorn cans: "what dreams are made of". I haven't tried this one yet but I definitely will! Their art and beer tells a story and takes you there. They have on site tours at 2pm on Saturdays (too bad we JUST missed it). Will definitely be back for that! Bring your kids leave your pups (I know, sad but they can't be here. Service animals are accepted, however, no emotional nor therapy dogs). Just a heads up! Staff is very knowledgeable and knows their stuff. They'll let you try what you want and are very patient and friendly. Can't wait to come back, so happy to have taken home some buddy sprinkles to hold us up until the next time we're in Kent! Also, they sell some local Farm Raised Meats from Camps Road Farm (in case you want!) Cool spot, awesome beers, beautiful art! read more

A few thoughts on the economics of brewery tasting rooms. Three days ago, I went with some gents from work to a big gorgeous tasting room at a brewery in the Hartford suburbs. If you really want to know where that was, just go back five reviews. That tasting room was huge- it was bigger and fancier than the dining rooms in a lot of restaurants I've been to. There were televisions up on the walls, fancy drop light fixtures everywhere, scores of nice wood tables and chairs, a spiffy hardwood floor, and even fancy ceramic tiles on the bathroom floor. But a glass of their beer cost twice as much as what I paid yesterday at Kent Falls Brewing. The tasting room at Kent Falls is about as Spartan as I have ever seen. They had two big picnic tables and benches inside, and a few smaller ones outside. The floor was wide old wood planks, that looked to have been there at least since Dwight Eisenhower was president. The fanciest feature in the room was the psychedelic blue, black, and gray swirls of the paint on the walls. So if you go to a tasting room to be dazzled by its ambience, and are OK paying $6 or $7 for a full pour, there are breweries to visit to that do that very well. But if you go to a tasting room, let's just say for arguments sake "Kent Falls Brewing", and are OK sitting in what looks like an old barn without a lot of frills, even less pretension, and want to pay $4 for a full pour, you will enjoy yourself here. We sure enjoyed ourselves here. They offered six beers on draft for full pours, or growler fills. They also had a nice selection of bottles and cans to go. Their website says they have 139 different products in their repertoire, so you can see what is available on draft, in cans, in bottles, etc. I saw they had a beer on tap called Danny Boy, so how could I resist that? It was a German style lager/pilsner with 4.9% ABV. It was very good- super refreshing and not very hoppy. I picked up a four pack to take home. We sat at the far end of one of their picnic tables and saw some "Trivial Pursuit"-like card games there, except all of the questions were about beer. Later, we were joined at our table by a couple of beer aficionados from Naugatuck, and we had a nice time shooting the breeze with them. Why not take a drive out to beautiful Litchfield County and have a pint or two in the barn on the farm? Cheers ! read more

Honestly - Kent Falls makes some of the best craft beer I've ever tasted. I first discovered it during an A+ meal at Blue Hill at Stone Barns, and vowed to get there at some point to taste the rest. That some point, finally, ended up being last week, in the middle of one of the biggest and seemingly neverending thunderstorm downpours of the summer. I usually save "COVID stuff" for the end of my reviews, but this one needs to be front and center. Let it be known: they are not open for tastings. Or drinking. Or on-premise consumption of any sort. These days, they prefer you to order ahead. I warn you now because I found this out while I was standing in the abovementioned downpour. I suppose I should have checked the website. In any case, I did manage to talk my way into the tasting room just to get out of the rain while I chose some 4-packs to bring home. Superscript IPA, Super Sparkle IPA, and Glitter Rainbow IPA all found their way to my fridge and I am subsequently rationing them in a very appropriate manner. It's hard to pick a favorite, but if I had to, Superscript really stands out. It's juicier than a Jersey peach in the middle of July. Kent Falls is kinda in nowhereland, and cell service is spotty at best. But when you take your first sip of the beer of your choice...none of that will matter in the least. It's worth the trip no matter where you are. read more

Kent Falls Brewing is one of the best breweries in Connecticut. They're known for a wide variety of beers, often with fun names, and doing stuff that's just ... different. Awkward Hug, A Vague Reassurance That Everything's Going to be Alright, and ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. These are all names of beers that Kent puts out. Anyway, their brewery is also a working farm, so unfortunately they're not dog friendly, but the times we visited were during cooler months, so we were able to leave our pup in the car comfortably. They've got a barn for a tasting room, and there's lots of room inside and out. No food service (typical of most CT breweries) but we usually come with a packed lunch, so this is no problem for us. It's a nice, chill, relaxed vibe here. Highly recommend! read more

Had a really nice experience here stopping after a hike. Nice indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy a low key beer on tap. They have delicious selections and great quality; they also sell microbrews in their shop you can't get anywhere else. I really loved both IPAs on tap as well as a new one with gin botanicals. Very drinkable. Two minor complaints; the whole place smelled like manure because...it's on a farm. They also don't sell food to stay, so after 1-2 beers you'll want to leave. read more

Kent Falls simply makes world class beers, In a perfect environment to go and say "cheers". Off the beaten path, but so worth the trip, One sip of this stuff, and you'll surely flip. I've been drinking Kent Falls beers for years, but I finally made it to the brewery itself after a trip to Kent Falls State Park. The trip definitely cemented Kent Falls as my favorite brewery in the state, and one of my favorites in the country. The beers were fresh, flavorful, and unique. From Pale Ales to Stouts, I liked them all. The tasting room was simple, yet enchanting. A few picnic tables inside a barn and a bunch more picnic tables outside, creating the perfect place to spend an afternoon. You can get half pours as well as full pours from the bar along with cans and bottles. When we went there was one line for everything. They also grow their own ingredients for their beers, which is so cool. I was so inspired that I plan to try to grow some of my own hops next year. read more

Great beer. Nice brewery location in the Kent outskirts. They grow the hops right near the brewery and you can walk through the gardens. Bring snacks, Family friendly, picnic tables outside. It's a little hard to get to and no service so be careful not to depend on the gps to get home! read more

On a nice Sunday afternoon on Sept 19th, we drove 45 minutes to visit Kent Falls for the first time. It will be our last. Not because the beer was bad because is is actually quite good. But the server in the tasting room was rude, dismissive and snarky. Basically presenting a vibe that said "I don't want to be here". Whether she is a family member or a hired hand of the brewery they need to find her a job that's not customer facing. At the end of the day, we had 1 beer and left. Basically, a wasted trip. 3.5 stars for the beer 1 star for the service read more

I've always been a fan of Kent Falls' beers as they're my default local hometown brewery. Maybe it's cuz I grew up in the area but the drive isn't so far out of the way to me? Either way it's a great scenic drive so no one should complain especially since your destination has awesome beer once you arrive. Their taproom has most of the beers you can get throughout the state but has a few brewery exclusives that make the drive worth it. They do growler fills along with bottles & cans for sale. They have a great social media presence that has updated offerings. You can get half or full pours of beers on tap & the tap room is spacious. There is room outside with a small playground which makes bringing your kids an option. They are definitely one of my favorite breweries in the state & worth checking out if you're in the area for sure! read more

Beer was terrific and it had a good vibe. No snacks, or corn hole but nicely set up with lots of room. Did I mention the beer was really good? We had various tastes in our group of 4, but all were satisfied! We bought some at a local store the next day! Thanks read more

Took a little road trip with the fam this weekend. Have to say what a lovely countryside location setting with a heavenly beer menu! The Super Script was my favorite and the Awkward Hug ipa was good too but probably stuck out more because of our most recent Awkward experience at nebco. Also worth mentioning, they have straight from the source farm food!! Loooove it! Couldn't resist scooping up some fresh duck eggs and chorizo on our way out. The only gripe (and it's a small one) was that we wish their hours were open a bit later. But we had an awesome time nonetheless and the beer tasted so fresh. We will most definitely return for more!:) read more

They're getting 3 stars for the quality of the beer, but the lack of customer service at their curbside pickup in front of the closed-for-Covid tasting room leaves much to be desired. If they don't appreciate their customers, they shouldn't bother with a direct to consumer contact. read more

We did the the farm tour which happens every Saturday at 2 and is free. The farmer was a great tour guide and gave a lot of interesting information about the farm and the beer. They are trying to be very eco friendly so this is the type of place I like to support- I don't drink beer, but my husband does and I told him to buy all the beer he wanted from this awesome local brewery! As a bonus for the farm tour, they served a special brew made specifically for the farm tour only. They also raise and sell chickens and pigs. read more

My sister found this gem and we treated ourselves last Saturday. The brewery is a bit off the beaten path, but so worth the journey. (It's really not that bad!) Parking was a little tricky but we managed to snag a spot down the road. The tap room was full of happy craft beer drinkers with some kids running around, too. We agreed that this was the most rustic one we have been to. The bartenders are very friendly and happy to advise on a choice. I had a Maybe Both? which was very good. I tasted my sister's sour that was yummy. Bathroom are next door in the brewery. So glad we stopped by. read more

Dropped in quickly to pick up some cans and to get a glass of Hawaiian Brunch. The parking was very limited, we ended up parking down the road... on the side of the road. The brewery is on a farm and the tasting room was in an old garage which was different and cool. But there wasn't a lot of seating or space. We got half glasses of Hawaiian brunch and the beer was different but very good! We are very excited to try the different beers we bought in cans, but we weren't a huge fan on the brewery itself. I don't know if we'll be back to hang out, but the beer is good and that's what makes it worth 4 stars. read more

Kent falls brewing is definitely a bit of a hike, but I always make a point of going to the tasting room and getting some cans whenever I'm in the Litchfield county area. Kent Falls has unique and very very fresh beers varying from farmhouse ales to ipas to German lagers. Some of the best beer in Connecticut, without question. It also doesn't hurt they have a beautiful patio overlooking the farm and little jungle gym for those with kids! We will be back! read more

Kent Falls is out of the way, but worth a trip. They are located on a working farm (which you can tour) and grow some of their own hops. The taproom is plain but very functional and you're sharing space with several barrels of beer that are in various states of the barrel aging process. We ere there on maybe the second weekend they were there so things were still a bit raw, but everything worked well. Example: You couldn't buy the labeled glasses because they weren't sure that would leave them with enough to pour pints. Something I'm sure has been fixed by now. We had a few pints and bought a few four packs for the road and had a lovely, relaxing time. read more

Nice little brewery with great beers. The taste room fills up fast, but the line moves relatively quick. I would recommend going on a nice day to take advantage of the outside sitting area. The only negative is that there is limited seating and no food, but the beers and staff more than make up for it. read more

Rarely do I get to combine two passions! Kent Falls Brewery is both a craft beer brewery and a functioning organic farm (Camps Road Farm-chicken, pork, hops, apples)! The recently opened tasting bar offers 6 beers on tap . Delicious sours, IPAs, lagers, etc...if your idea of a perfect beer is a Bud, stay away. After a few beers we went on an informative, entertaining farm tour by farmer John. Organically grown hops, chickens, pigs; solar powered water heaters supply the brewery with H2O, and a primer on organic farming. On the way out we picked up bottles of Objective Reality, a Brett table beer fermented on cherries, Prickly Pear Grose, a sour beer brewed with prickly pear, and cans of The Unicorns are Making Us Do This, a double imperial pale ale. Do not miss this gem nestled in beautiful Kent CT. read more

We have been to Kent Falls Brewing many times, and visited their new tap room recently. They have a wide selection of great beers.

They use as many local ingredients in their beer as possible, which is also great! read more

Come here for the tour on Saturday's at 2pm! Barry, the guide/brewmaster, was so knowledgeable, passionate, fun, and interesting! It was really neat to see what goes into the brewing process. Loved the tour of the entire farm while enjoying a complimentary glass of tour beer! Got to see the hops growing, the stinky pigs who work so hard on making manure, the aging barrels, and beautiful fields and a whole lots of nature! We went to the tasting room after and got some beers. They even let me sample a beer too. I got The Gardener's Tale beer and it was so yummy- loved the mint in it- genius! I also bought a T-shirt (they have T-shirt's and hats for sale.). The artwork is so fun and colorful. You can bring kids and your own food and eat inside or outside at the picnic or barrel tables. It was a rainy day so everyone was inside, but it was still fun. I definitely want to come back again! read more

Best Brewery ever. Love the beer. The staff are real nice and teach you about beer. Great in summer time nice country fresh air.

A little out of the way but enjoyed their brew. No snacks available. Visit the pigs and chickens but keep in mind they are future food.

Very tasty beers and cool atmosphere. Like the farm setting, can't wait to check it out in season. Only down side is the hours, they are very limited. read more

I have loved awkward hug for a long time and finally decided to go visit with family on a special occasion. We planned on visiting Kent Falls first and then Housatonic followed by WBC. I had built up Kent Falls as a great local brewery to the family from out of town and told them (based on the beer) there was a great chance we would stay there for the day if things went well. We arrive with perfect weather and that is the end of the good story! The small woman (still wearing a mask) behind the register has zero desire to actually talk about beer and my only reference is Awkward Hug and maybe a Superscript a few years ago. I tell her this and she gives me a sample of an IPA on tap which isn't nearly as good as Awkward Hug. I say I'll just buy a can or 4pack of Awkward Hug and pour it in a glass and she actually says no! I ask her why as the person near me just got a Porter can and poured it in a glass and she actually says "we have plenty of IPA's on tap so you should have one of those!" The man I was with didn't comprehend so we just paid for his Porter and left. Next stop was Housatonic and it was stellar as usual. I understand good help is hard to find these days, but small businesses, especially craft breweries succeed with two things, the product and the service. Only reason this is not one star is the product. Save yourself and go to either brewery in New Milford, WBC, or head a little bit further to Canaan...if she is representative of this brewery they do not deserve your business. read more
